if hasn't been posted before, if NY wins we will pass  them in draft order based om strength of schedule.  If Dallas loses, our 4th from them for Mingo will be higher in the order. 

Giants are 2-9, we're 3-8. Won't we still have to wait til Sunday to know the official standings based on the outcome of our game as well? I dunno if them being 3-9 and us being 3-8 would put us over them for a couple days.

uhh ok

#Bears coach Matt Eberflus on the final sequence: The hope was to re-rack the play, snap the ball at 18 seconds, throw in-bounds, call timeout and then kick the field goal. Still likes how they handled it. “We’ve just got to do a better job together.”

Bradshaw consistently has some of the dumbest football games I've seen

Likable guy, entertaining to watch, but not the brightest bulb.

Agree. I don't think I have ever heard him say anything positive, at any time, about the Panthers. Best expectation is no mention at all.

Clearly the best outcome for us is a Giants W. A spot or two difference in the 4th round is inconsequential. Just look at the trade value charts. A spot or two at the top of the 1st means a LOT. A spot or two in the mid-rounds? Virtually nothing.

3-8 would be a higher win percentage than 3-9

I remember a really weird pregame moment with him back in I think 2005 or so...

Coming back from a commercial, before the guys were even on camera, Curt Menefee did a voice over where he talked about an "inside scoop" from Bradshaw. He said Jake Delhomme was not only gonna be benched, but likely cut. It finished with "Jake Delhomme has started his last game for the Carolina Panthers".

And then not another word about it.

The way they handled it - giving it only a passing mention then ignoring it - I think Fox thought it was bullsh-t. It felt like they didn't want to broadcast it but Bradshaw pushed until they did.

And obviously, it was bullsh-t.

Bradshaw has since left the inside scoopage to Jay Glazer...as he should.

Hollywood Henderson said Bradshaw couldn't spell cat if you gave him the C and the A

To be fair to Eberflus they did get lined up with 18 seconds left which is a lot of time. Caleb then decided to fix his glove and take his sweet ass time. I think more of the blame falls on Caleb in this exact situation 

Caleb is a rookie but he didn’t just start playing football yesterday and he showed zero clock awareness

Jonathan Mingo is such a bum.

The fact we got a 4th Rounder for trading him blows my mind

Why is he still on TV? Honestly

He’s a full blown moron and makes no secret about it
 

 

[Mr. Scot]

Reminded why we got rid of Jonathan Mingo

Reminded that I don't really understand why we let go of the Ihmir Smith-Marsette

Same reason guys like Colin Cowherd are still on the radio
